Representatives of political parties on one hand are saying that the Kosovo Assembly should not be dismissed without extending the mandate of EULEX and on the other hand they mention deadlines by when the Assembly should be dismissed. These statements are manipulations with the public opinion or these political representatives truly do not know constitutional procedures and deadlines regarding the prospect of holding early elections.
Before choosing to cut short their mandate, MPs have to first approve the new law on elections, legitimise the new mandate of EULEX, vote on the mandate of the tribunal for war crimes, and reach an agreement with representatives of communities for the mandate of reserved seats. Only once these tasks are fulfilled can there be talk about options on how to dismiss the Assembly.
